I'm guessing $149 was the agreed upon price at one point and then some last-minute negotiations got it down to $99.
What I don't get is why the 8X date was held up as well. Obviously with it selling for TWICE the price of the Lumia 920 on AT&T, HTC is in deep doo doo.
Deep mofockin doodoo. $99 for an 8GB 8X seems pointless.
At $99, the 920 really has a chance to gain some ground.
I can't understand why they didn't announce this ONE friggin' month ago.
IM SURE it would have gotten MUCH more hype, the reviewers would have been A LOT nicer to a $99 device and IM SURE it would have gotten a lot of people off the iPhone 5 wagon.
Those executives responsible for these desicions seem very mongoloid.
